Tenant hears her name whispered in her ear one night while she was sleeping. She woke up and went into the bathroom. The tenant's normal pattern is sleeping through the night however; when she went to the bathroom she heard a noise in her bedroom, when she returned to her room every single ceiling tile in the room was on the floor with the exception of one that fits under the light fixture. She believes this whisper was attempting to remove her from the room to prevent her from being hurt

Investigation - 8/22/08

We arrived at the clients home about 8:15pm. We set up camera's in 2 bedrooms, the kitchen and one was placed the in basement. Voice recorders were placed stationary. One in the tenants bedroom, one in the son's bedroom, one in the basement and one was left in the attic. We started our investigation about 9:00pm.

There were no personal experiences throught out the evening by our investigators. The evening was rather quiet and calm however; upon reviewing the data we captured a voice of what sounds like a young boy. The investigators in the room at the time the voice was captured was Jim and Dave. We always introduce ourselves when we are doing our investigations. What we believe the voice to be saying is "Can you hear me, Dave"

ABE Paranormal was unsucessful in finding any records to support a child that may have passed in the home or would be attached to the property. We believe the activity lies dormant since the grandson no longer resides at this location. When the grandson does visit to this day, he still tell Grandma that Clevis is there.

Further research is recommended to determine the child that seems to dwell in this location. We believe the child may be interacting with the grandson only. Advised the homeowners to stay in contact and keep a journel when the grandchild visits of activity and stay in touch.
